Flat Stanley at Bat Book Cover

Flat Stanley, the beloved character created by Jeff Brown, is back in this I Can Read book about baseball!

When Stanley plays center field for his baseball team, he is a flat-out great player! None of the other players can float to catch the highest hits, or earn walks from the fastest pitchers. But when the fairness of his flatness is questioned by the other team, Stanley has to step up to bat to prove himself.

Flat Stanley at Bat is a Level 2 I Can Read book, geared toward kids who can read on their own but still need a little help.

What happens when being different is your greatest strength—and your biggest problem?

  • Kids Baseball Book: Stanley can float to catch fly balls and is so thin that pitchers can’t see him to throw strikes—but is that fair?
  • Overcoming Challenges: When the other team questions his flat advantage, Stanley has to find a new way to prove he’s a great player, not just a flat one.
  • Problem Solving Story: With a little help from his brother Arthur (and a lot of laundry!), Stanley steps up to the plate to show everyone what he can do.
  • Perfect for Early Readers: As a Level 2 I Can Read book, the simple sentences and engaging plot are designed to help build confidence for kids reading on their own.
